Five Wounded in Detroit Stabbings

DETROIT (AP) _ At least six people were stabbed at random over the weekend and a suspect has been arrested, police said Monday. One of the victims died.

Sgt. Ricardo Moore said the suspect, a 46-year-old man, was driving a vehicle that matched witness descriptions. No charges had been filed.

"It appears that he tried to gain people's confidence by striking up a conversation, and then he let them have it," Moore said. "We don't know whether robbery is the motive."

A man was killed Saturday morning after being stabbed in the head and chest, Moore said. Two men at an activity center were stabbed Saturday afternoon, and a 15-year-old girl was stabbed in the back Sunday while leaving church.

A 49-year-old woman who worked at a nursing home was stabbed on her left arm and shoulder a couple hours later, an employee at a local inn was stabbed in the head and chest late Sunday.
